That’s right, there are certain necessities that we do not pay for anymore. Between store promotions, double/triple coupons and store stacked coupons, you would be surprised how many items you can get for free. In the world of marketing they are called “loss leaders”. If you don’t mind switching between brands, you can build quite a stockpile of products.

Here is one scenario on how it works. Let’s say CVS has toothpaste on sale for $1.99 and you can get $1 back in Extra Care Bucks (ECB= coupon that can be used on your next purchase). Use a $1.00 MQ for that brand and you’ve gotten the toothpaste for free!! Sometimes the deals are even sweeter. Walgreens and CVS often list an item as Free (after ECB or Register Rewards). If you pair that deal with a MQ, it’s what we call a money maker!

So what items do Kristy and Mary get for free?:
Toothpaste
Toothbrushes
Floss
Shampoo and Conditioner
Deodorant
Shaving Cream
Band-aids
Softsoap hand soap
Kid shampoo
Pasta
Razors (getting harder to get completely Free, but at least under $2)

You can also take advantage of high value coupons that do not list a size restriction to get the following travel/trial sized products for Free:
